Cables /power conditioner- Order of importance

Spoke to a few dealers regarding cables/conditioners and most of their opinions seems to differ. If youI wish to upgrade cable/conditioner but has limited budget, which would you upgrade 1st. Power conditioner, speaker cable, power cord, interconnect? What would be your order of importance? TQ. Happy listening

Don't buy a conditioner unless your sure you need one.Most people will admit that straight to the wall is best if you can. If you can't than thats a different story. All condtioners have different good/bad points and the trick is to find the right one for your system! Just my 2 centsworth.

Your probably getting mixed answers because it depends what your weakest link is. From what you are asking above is fair but we need to know hwat you are running now. Is your AC noisy? Are you running tubes or monoblocks or a receiver?

It all starts at the wall and I feel you should start with a non current limiting, non coloring power conditioner. The next step in the chain would be cables at the source and then work downline. The quality of the amplified signal cannot be improved once degraded.
